Buchanan, James

Born Apr. 23, 1791, in Mercersburg, Pennsylvania; died June 1, 1868, at Wheatland, in present-day Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Statesman of the USA.

Buchanan first belonged to the Federalist Party; later he became one of the leaders of the Democratic Party. During the years 1821-31 he was a member of the House of Representatives; during 1832-33, minister to Russia; during 1834-45, a senator; and in the period 1845-49, secretary of state. Buchanan was one of the organizers of the predatory war waged by the USA against Mexico (1846-48). During the years 1853-56 he was minister to Great Britain. From 1857 to 1861, Buchanan was president of the USA. After Lincoln’s victory in the presidential election of 1860, Buchanan made use of his last few months in office to strengthen the military power of the slaveholding South on the eve of the Civil War (1861-65).
